Winklevoss Petition for Rehearing en Banc

Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss and Divya Narendra have filed a petition
for a rehearing by the entire Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals after a
three-judge panel of the court ruled that the settlement agreement
between the parties and Facebook was valid and enforceable. The
Winklevosses and Narendra had challenged the agreement, claiming that
Facebook had committed fraud during the negotiations. The original
lawsuit stemmed from the Winklevosses' and Narendra's assertions that
the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, stole the idea for
the social network from them while a student at Harvard University. Winklevoss Petition for Rehearing en Banc
